Gardening Workshop Series
ELLICOTTVILLE, NY - Cornell Cooperative Extension of Cattaraugus County is introducing a virtual Gardening Workshop Series, featuring presentations focused on home gardening, and resources from the Cornell Garden Based Learning Library and Master Gardener program.
These workshops will be hosted and presented by Cornell Cooperative Extension staff, regional Master Gardener volunteers, and other local gardening experts. Each session will focus on one or two gardening topics, with time allotted for questions and answers. If you are interested in these topics as a beginner or experienced home gardener, Cornell Cooperative Extension encourages you to attend any or all of these free educational sessions via Zoom presentation.
These first two sessions will each be offered at two different times. Presentations will cover topics on wintertime garden planning, preparation, and care.
